Is there any reason not to just replace them with nice looking grips? The gun isn't numbers matching. I just removed them for the first time and I don't see any obvious numbers on them. I see some letters but...I can't seem to see anything that says they are original to the lower half of the gun. But, then again I don't know what I'm looking at for sure.

Here are the inside of the grips. Are these anything original to the lower half of my gun or should I just replace them? If I should just replace them...does anyone suggest a dealer for walnut checkered grips?

I see a 21 stamped into the grip...that's the only number I see. I assume that's the serial and if so it does not match any part on this gun. I see other letters though.
